- The fundamentals of flavor compounds formation based on their main precursors (lipids, amino acids, and carbohydrates)
- Technological issues related to flavor compounds
- Physicochemical characteristics of aroma compounds and the main factors that influence aroma binding and release in foods
- Safety and regulatory aspects of flavorings used in foods
- Flavors of essential oils and spices, cheeses, red meat, wine, and bread and bakery products
